How do I get the pension in Australia?

Superannuation is a government program that helps you save money for retirement while you work. It applies to most employees, but most GPs work as independent contractors and need to arrange their own retirement savings. You can find more information about this, income tax, and related matters on the Australian Taxation Office's website.

If you're planning to move to Australia, you might want to think about moving your UK pension too. Although there are certain conditions you must meet to transfer your UK pension successfully, recent rule changes have made the process much simpler than before.
